One would hope that military training includes using firearms more often than once every fortnight. But what does the quality of the firearms issued to the military have to do with the grandparent post, which was about home protection?

The words "Hacked by realloc(" in the "We own all your code" image suggest that someone broke into the server. Dunno what changes they made besides adding "Hacked by realloc(" to the image, though.

There's plenty of opinion. As the summary points out, the important word is "unstructured". Unless it has a technical meaning in the context of patents, it will surely require interpretation by the courts eventually, because anyone sued for infringement will be able to make a good case that all computer IO is structured.
Blunkett wants to have them in British passports too. The signals transmitted will probably include nationality, though, so don't let that make you feel safer.
The reason they put forward is that if they require electrical contacts to read the data, the contacts will wear away. I don't quite understand the reasoning: the chip-and-PIN credit and debit cards recently introduced in Britain use metal contacts, and most people use their credit or debit cards more frequently than their passports.
If they're going to be protecting US IP abroad, they probably want a name which doesn't make it sound as though their focus is entirely domestic. Two million in any currency is cheap for an organisational renaming nowadays.
While I agree that the grandparent poster's phrasing was inelegant, I don't see the implication you do. The claim is that "it would be unwise to claim that FireFox has fewer bugs and [is] more secure because it hasn't been exploited yet." This is true, and it does follow from the realistic understanding that no (substantial) software product is bug-free. The paragraph you quote doesn't actually address the issue of whether FireFox is more secure than IE.
I suggest university in England if you want to get a degree. (Please note: this is not a flame against vocational subjects, but rather a linguistic clarification).
But saying that the Japanese and Chinese are like the English and the Irish IS a fair comparison - maybe not in the numbers of those killed, but certainly in the hatred behind it.
Loyalists and Republicans in Northern Ireland, perhaps, but the vast majority of the English and southern Irish get on perfectly well, and at a diplomatic/administrative level relations are very good.

English has a subjunctive mood. That's my excuse, anyway.
Battery is either hitting people or a device for storing electrical energy. Did you mean barratry?
Actually I was thinking of using Tangleroot + Equilibrium to build up an arbitrarily large storm count before casting Brain Freeze...
Actually I think I could say that to you with more justice.
It gets me a beep from Safari. Reload is Cmd-R.

What for? Pressing F5 doesn't do anything...
It is, actually. With the exception of IBM, most of SCO's ligitation has been targetted at their own customers.
In a military context I would normally assume SAW to mean Squad Automatic Weapon, but that doesn't really fit the context.

Because we all know that open-relay SMTP servers are useful for HTTP.

If you ask a question, then she is required to reply to you within a certain period of time - I can't recall offhand whether it's 2 or 4 weeks.

Even if the US authorities do nothing about it, the EU's Competition Commissioner might have something to say.

You forgot to mention that you're not playing this term.

Needs refactoring: amendments XXVI and XXXXIV are the same.
Did you notice an attempted coup in Venezuela a couple of years ago?
They look to have derailed the attempts to introduce software patents in the EU, for the time being at least.
